Artist Interview: Roger Guenveur Smith on “In Honor of Jean-Michel Basquiat”

IN HONOR OF JEAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT has taken the stage here at the NYTW 4th St Theatre, with sold-out audiences and additional performances for its run in the Under the Radar Festival this January. Creator and performer Roger Guenveur Smith took a moment before a stacked two-show day to chat with NYTW Education & Engagement Associate Marty Chandler about the piece, its history, and Basquiat’s legacy.
